At the beginning, I saved a little mute

Chun Yu angrily brought out a pot of soaked beans and said, "How can these people be like this? They clearly signed the contract and put their fingerprints on it, but now they say they won't come. They have no integrity at all."

Jiang Zao smiled. People always take action only after seeing the benefits, so she just thought about it for a while and then let it go.

She clapped her hands and gathered the four of them together. Chunyu stood beside her like a door god, and Mo Bai and Mo Shan stood behind them.

Jiang Zao had told Mo Shan to close the door. Even if someone else came, they would not be able to come in if they missed the time, and she would not let them in.

"Okay, let's get started once everyone is here. Let me be frank. Although I don't charge tuition, I can always send you back if you don't do a good job."

The four of them solemnly swore that they would do it seriously.

"Of course, I still have some requirements. First of all, it must be clean. We are making food. If it is not clean, it will not only affect the taste of the food, but also affect future business."

"Business?" The other three boys did not ask, but Zhou Juanniang exclaimed.

Although the sound is small, it is easy to hear.

Jiang Zao nodded, "Of course, how do you think tofu is made? I learned it from the capital, so I can do business in Fufeng County. If you make tofu that meets the standards, you can do business there. Although a piece of tofu only costs one penny, every penny earned is a penny earned."

She learned this saying from the capital after discussing it with Que Yunsheng. After all, the tofu recipe was given to the third prince, and as more people come to the capital, their place will not be conspicuous in the future.

The other three were not surprised.

Otherwise, their father would not have insisted on letting them study after hearing the rumors.

Zhou Juanniang was the most excited and made up her mind to study hard.

I will teach this skill to my younger sisters in the future, and the whole family can make tofu together. Our future life will be promising.

For the first time since she stepped into the yard, her eyes showed a look of hope.

So, in the following studies, Zhou Juanniang was the smallest, but she studied the most seriously.

You can learn it almost immediately.

Lian Jiang Zao was extremely surprised and exclaimed that she was extremely intelligent.

It was the first time that Zhou Juanniang was praised like this, and her little face turned red.

Two weeks later, Jiang Zao announced that they were all ready to start their careers.

In fact, within five days, everyone had become extremely proficient.

It was just that Jiang Zao was afraid that it was too early and others didn't believe in their skills, so he extended the time.

In the last few days, Jiang Zao really had nothing to teach them, so he simply asked them to make a plate of tofu each and sell it as Maixiangfang's tofu for the day.

Several people were curious and nervous.

Everyone stood behind their own tofu board, feeling uneasy.

They heard Chunyu's hawking voice and wanted to imitate it.

The three boys looked at each other, but none of them spoke first.

"I'm selling tofu. Fresh tofu that's just out of the pot. It's sweet and white like jade paste. One penny a piece. You won't be cheated if you buy it. Come and take a look."

No one expected that the crisp voice was Zhou Juanniang's, which was somewhat similar to the voice of a hawker in the spring rain.

Won Jiang Zao's approval.

People gathered around curiously. A woman dressed as an aunt took a look at the tofu on the curtain and couldn't believe it.

"Juan Niang, did you make all this yourself?"

"Of course." Seeing the first customer coming to ask, Zhou Juanniang straightened her back and answered like Chunyu.

"You can make tofu independently so soon? You have only been learning it for ten days, right?" The sister-in-law took a closer look and saw that the tofu was indeed as square as the tofu made by Maixiangfang.

It was done so quickly that she regretted not coming to learn. It was all because the boss said it was a lie. She had signed the contract but still couldn't come to learn.

"Miss Jiang praised me for my intelligence." Zhou Juanniang felt more confident. She remembered these four words clearly and decided to learn how to write them in the future. She would then ask someone to write them and hang them in the house.

"Give me a piece."

"Okay."

Watching Zhou Juanniang wrap a piece of tofu skillfully, the aunt took it and hesitated to leave.

"Juan Niang, please ask Miss Jiang when they will recruit again. I will be the first one to sign up."

Zhou Juanniang shook her head. "Ms. Jiang said that she will not recruit apprentices to make tofu in the future."

"What? No more hiring?"

Not only the aunt, but also several people around who were eager to try changed their expressions.

They just wanted to see which way the wind was blowing before taking any action, but they had no idea that the opportunity was gone.

Then he started complaining.

"How could this be?"

"That's right, we haven't learned it yet."

"Outsiders are outsiders. They are not reasonable at all."

Zhou Juanniang looked angry, "What are you talking about? Miss Jiang originally said that there was no limit on the number of people to be recruited. You signed the contract and gave up on your own. What does Miss Jiang have to do with it?"

"Then you can plead with Miss Zhou again. We are all willing to learn." As soon as the aunt said this, the others echoed her.

"Yeah, yeah."

"We will never regret this time."

Madam Zhou Juan shook her head. "No, Madam Zhou said that the contract was originally signed just to count the number of people, but you all didn't come, so we wasted so many beans."

The beans certainly don’t go to waste.

"She will never give anyone a chance again. People who are dishonest will never have a chance. You guys really disappointed her."

Everyone's face changed and they all blamed the person who had instigated them not to go in the first place.

When the noise died down, Zhou Juanniang looked at them and said loudly, "However, Miss Zhou said that we were all taught by her. Although you have disappointed her, she is a tolerant person."

After a pause, everyone's eyes were fixed on Zhou Juanniang.

Zhou Juanniang couldn't help but straighten her back even more.

She used to be self-deprecating and timid, but now Miss Jiang has given her the confidence to do so. Even when facing the gazes of so many people, she is not afraid.

All this is thanks to Miss Zhou.

"Although she won't teach you how to make tofu, you can buy from the four of us. As long as we make it, the extra ones will be sold wholesale to you at the price of ten cents per board. The minimum purchase is one board of tofu at a time. If you buy in bulk, and it's less than a board, then it's still one cent per piece."

As soon as the words fell, everyone exploded.

There was a lot of discussion.

Zhou Juanniang's eyes were filled with tears of excitement.

She did it.

She repeated every word that Miss Jiang taught her.

She is no longer the Zhou Juanniang who could not even say three words when hit with a stick.

The crowd just started to make noises of dissatisfaction, without waiting for Zhou Juanniang and the others to say anything.

Que Yunsheng walked out from the back yard.

He just glanced at them lightly, and everyone fell silent immediately.

No one wants to mess with this vicious man.

You know, the hole in the mud in front of Maixiangfang has not been filled yet.

The next day, the four said goodbye to Jiang Zao and left.

A few days later, Zhou Juanniang welcomed her first batch of business.

The beans were given to her on credit by Miss Jiang, and she only had to pay it back at the end of the month.

At night, Zhou Juanniang counted the pile of copper coins in front of her, tears leaking from between her fingers.

She finally earned her first pot of gold with her own abilities.
